Pretty nice. Will never see constructed play in Infect decks.
Face it WotC, when you build a mechanic where all your need to win is an unblocked creature and two or three 1 mana pump spells in hand, no one is going to go the slow route of building poison counters.
No one playing Infect plays Proliferate or any of the other odd forms of getting poison counters. It's all "cheap creature, rush, pump, go from 0 to 10 poison counters in a single turn".
Thanks for the Infect Mark. Really. Thanks. After this block I lost a good deal of respect for you as a designer.

I love the art and its similarity to Plummet mirroring the two card effects similarity.

As a design, this is just so parasitic! that you have to call it a bad design.

Personally I think this at instant could have a lot more potential in new standard infect sideboards with all the spirits running around in Innistrad. Let's face it, I can imagine the face of a player who's at 9 poison swinging in with Geist of Saint Traft, only to see his angel snipped down by this to cause a surprise loss.

@Majinara Are you trolling or are you that stupid? That is the very purpose of the sideboard.
